Thrown
Grey stoneware is centred and pulled by hand on the wheel. Eight weeks of throwing produces roughly two hundred green pieces — most will not survive the kiln.
The atelier — Somerset, United Kingdom
A kiln, two hands, forty pieces
The studio is one room at the end of a stone barn: a wheel, a drying shelf, a glaze bench, and a wood kiln built from reclaimed brick. Everything sold here was made in that room, in this calendar year.
Shop the collectionProcess
Three weeks of making, forty hours of fire
Dried & trimmed
Each piece rests under cloth for a week, then the foot is turned and the handle pulled while the clay is still leather-hard.
Fired
A slow bisque, then forty hours in the wood kiln with the door stoked every ten minutes. Ash falls, glaze moves, and the edition is fixed.
Care
Use it hard
- Every piece is dishwasher safe and fired to stoneware temperature, so it will not stain or chip easily.
- For thermal shock, warm cold pots gradually rather than pouring boiling water into a chilled vessel.
- Unglazed feet can be refreshed with a soft cloth and a little oil once a year.
Shipping & returns
